Worried and Confused

I have been going through some pretty bad anxiety and worries the past month or so.  I was essentially wondering if it is common or even heard of for anxiety to cause joint pains?  Can anxiety cause dull/achy pains in the hands and feet?  I'm not sure if I have joint pains or muscle aches and was wondering pretty much if anxiety can be the root.  I am a diagnosed OCD and self diagnosed worry wart.  Please help!

Stress could make ANYTHING happen; you'll be surprised. There is no guarantee that it's causing it, but yes, it can cause anything to happen: loss of balance, vision, sexual problems, heart burn, acid reflux, ibs...etc..name it and it could affect it.
